Roster/Rumors/Speculation/Trade Talk - 2024-25: Re-Tool, Re-Group, Re-Mix, Re-Build

I don't know why you are dismissing top 5 picks that were traded. It's the pedigree that matters, not who picked them.

I agree, but isn't this an argument against the need to tear it down and tank? Compile assets and try to get a former top 5 pick via trade or signing?

Brock Nelson hasn’t scored a goal in 12 games. I’m starting to get mildly concerned about diminishing trade value.

He's had a pretty dry year

Palms not much better. Even last night that was the only line that really didn’t get involved

Still should be traded

The team that played last night could beat anybody in the league.

Nelson’s always been streaky.

I think he has enough of a track record that teams won’t shy away because of a cold stretch or even a down season. Multiple teams are always looking for top six scoring come deadline time.

The Flyers and the Yotes, to a degree Buffalo, make this difficult to desire. Even the Oilers. The management was so bad that they did little with the picks or didn't develop what they had. The boy genius in Arizona did a dreadful job.

If a retool of some sort is needed, then the decision on Lou comes first. And I am not saying Lou is not competent or capable of running a club. I'm not sure however he would be your guy to oversee a retool.

Gotta post - RIP Rickey Henderson. He was an all-time great. Better than folks remember and doesn't get his due. Greatest leadoff hitter on any era.

Absolutely
Ricky could hit, hit for power, obviously steal bases(not like this crap they have now)
And Ricky always lead the league in 2 things
Talking trash
And talking about Ricky in the third person
